Sentiment Toward: D-Bees
He’s tolerant of D-Bees, doesn’t much care for the Simvan, but most of the D-Bee’s he’s met are pretty decent people.

Sentiment Toward: Supernatural
As long as it doesn’t come banging down the door of his town and trying to kill the people he’s in charge of taking care of he doesn’t much care about the supernatural. As long as he’s known, the supernatural has been around and it doesn’t look like it’s going away any time soon.

Derek is fairly laid back, though being a law man, he tends to get a little uptight at times. Most of the time he is a congenial individual and gets along with everyone, but he is a bit suspicious of strangers, and has a sharp eye for trouble.

Bio:

Derek grew up in Hope, son of the local livery stables, he showed great promise for leadership and was so squeaky clean that people could trust him with just about anything. When he came of age, he took an apprenticeship under the current sheriff at the time, learning law and how to handle a “Shooting Iron”. When it came time, he signed on as a deputy, serving the town and working with several of the roaming Justice Rangers, including young Reyah Silvermoon. The two of them developed a fairly friendly relationship and worked together on several cases.

When it came time for the old sheriff to retire, the obvious choice for a new sheriff was Derek. He accepted the post with his usual reserve and humility, but he was dancing inside. Being sheriff was something he had always wanted to achieve, and now he was reaching his dream. His relationship with Ferret grew as she began to roam more closely to Hope and the two have become even stronger friends.
